Pyramid Boy

Satoshi Kitamura won the 1993 Mother Goose Award for the most exciting newcomer to children's book illustration for Angry Arthur. His books for Walker include The Carnival of the Animals, Stone Age Boy and Pumpkin Grumpkin edited by John Agard and Grace Nichols.

My #PictureBookFriday is a book you’ve got to use in your history lessons when studying ancient Egypt, Pyramid Boy! Coming from the author of Stone Age Boy, this is a wonderfully informative story which unpacks ancient Egyptian life, decoding hieroglyphics and exploring how pyramids were built. Beautifully illustrated too, I love all the information at the back too, which will really appeal to budding historians and archaeologists.
